Description:
In-between directing a film, maintaining an acting career, launching his own website, and touring in support of the solo CD set DWIGHTYOAKAMACOUSTIC.NET, it's downright remarkable that Dwight Yoakam found the time to record TOMMOROW'S SOUNDS TODAY before 2000 ended. Despite all this activity, Yoakam's production partner/guitarist Pete Anderson came up with another outing that bucks Music Row trends while honoring country music's past without becoming nostalgic. Throughout TOMORROW'S SOUNDS, Dwight Yoakam's rich tenor gets put to great use on songs like the Buddy Holly-inspired "Dreams of Clay" and the gritty honky-tonk of "A Place to Cry." Backed by a crack band featuring the distinctive contributions of fiddler Scott Joss and steel guitarist Gary Morse, Yoakam also impresses with tear-in-your beer laments like the seasonally themed "Time Spent Missing You" (featuring former Byrd Chris Hillman on mandolin) and the Hank Williams-flavored "The Heartaches Are Free." Highlights include a brilliant cover of Cheap Trick's "I Want You to Want Me" in which Yoakam applies a twangy sheen to this warhorse without killing the song's spirit, and a pair of bonus Buck Owens duets.
